Amazon sets a demanding pace on the job Adapted from: Byers, S.M. & Stanberry, K. (2018). Business Ethics. OpenStax. In a visit to an Amazon distribution center, a group of business students and their professors met with the general manager. After taking them on an extensive tour of the five-acre facility, the general manager commented on the slowness of the visitors’ walking pace. He described the Amazon Pace, a fast, aggressive walk, and confirmed that the average employee walks eight or nine miles during a shift. These employees are called “pickers,” and their task is to fill an order and deliver it to the processing and packing center as quickly as possible. The design of the center is a trade secret that results in a random distribution of products. Therefore, the picker has to cover a number of directions and distances while filling an order. Those who cannot keep up the pace are usually let go, just as those who would steal. Does the requirement to walk an average of…

A6 “Commodity-rich Australia is one of the very few countries to receive an economic growth upgrade by the International Monetary Fund, after the global outlook was slashed due to war in Ukraine and soaring inflation.” (Financial Review, 11 April 2022). “Australia’s economy has received a boost from the surge in the price of commodities such as gas, iron ore, coal and wheat”, said IMF division chief for Australia, Harald Finger. a. Assume that Australia’s economy is in its medium-run equilibrium (i.e. Y_t = Y_n and u_t = u_n) where Y_t represents the level of output in year t; u_t is the unemployment rate in year t; u_n is the natural rate of unemployment. Use the multiplier model diagram to illustrate the impact on Australia’s GDP from an increase in net export due to increase in commodity prices. Show the output gap in your graph.
